Hollywood legendary director

The more he looked, the more George felt that the relationship between Burden and the female assistant was strange.

Sometimes it's very close, sometimes it stays far away.

Perhaps, as Burden's wife lamented, does he have a schizophrenia-like illness?

Then, such a foreshadowing finally broke out.

With a kind of sorrow that did not live up to expectations.

Under Burden's seemingly calm appearance, there was heavy pain hidden again.

When a paragraph of plot, narration, recollection, the beginning of the gathering of the story line began to interweave, until this moment, the real theme of "Fatal Magic" is to show the audience through magic.

Watching patiently and meticulously has become the basis of watching this film.

The wife's incomprehensible questioning, quarrel with broken relationship.

After the affair, the two were in the cold war, but Faron was taking care of their daughter carefully.

The wife, who realized something, could no longer bear to hang himself.

As soon as the screen turned, Anjie returned to the UK with the machine invented by Tesla and began a continued magic show.

This time, he did not stand in to help him, but still completed the most sensational miracle performance.

Borden, who lost his wife, became more paranoid. Seeing that Anjie’s reputation would surpass him, and he wanted to uncover the magic mystery, no matter how he looked at it or bought team members, it seemed that he couldn’t find any flaws until he discovered that after every performance, Someone will sneak away a big box from behind the stage.

Burden felt that all the secrets should be hidden behind this, otherwise An Jie wouldn't have to hide in such a way to prevent outsiders from interfering.

In the end, Burden, who had been unable to guess the magic trick, couldn't help pretending to be an audience and mixed on stage to check the machine, and when everyone was attracted, he quickly sneaked into the background.

Under the stage, there was only a blind old man sitting, and there was a big water tank in front of him.

When An Jie on the stage is performing a magic trick, the floor props are activated, and An Jie will fall and fall into the water tank.

Burden just watched Anjie struggle in the water tank, but couldn't unlock the lock.

Yes, this is a real lock that closes automatically. It cannot be opened without a key.

Then, Anjie drowned (his wife also drowned). The only witnessed Burden was the most suspicious and was arrested and imprisoned, just like the beginning...

After being imprisoned, the jazz finally came to meet Burden himself.

But when they met, Burden was very emotional.

Although the dressing is different, the person does look exactly like An Jie.

In other words, the Jazz didn't know how to frame Borden to kill, and he took Borden's daughter to express that he had obtained custody and would take care of it.

Burden nervously took out a stack of paper from his pocket, wanting to beg for mercy from his former opponent with the secret of "changing shape and shadow".

But An Jie didn't even look at it. He tore the paper and declared in a superior posture: I won, and you will confess everything you did in hell.

A few days later, Fallon also came to visit Burden.

Burden said some farewell words, then threw the red ball he was carrying with him to Fallon, and calmly accepted his fate.

That night, he was hanged-Burden's wife also hanged.

After Burden's death, Fallon found the Lord and shot him.

In the jazz's blank face, Fallon tore off his disguise, revealing Burden's face.

It was also at this time that many truths were revealed.

Burden and Fallon were similar in appearance. After choosing the path of magic, the person who taught them kept the secret for them.

In order not to be seen through by anyone, the two took turns using the identity of "Borden".

Even after one person broke two fingers in his left hand, another person amputated his fingers resolutely, maintaining the same disability.

But the appearance is the same, there will be differences in temperament.

In addition to devoting energy to the magic, there are always some flaws, which is why the wife laments schizophrenia.

Furthermore, two of them, one likes his wife and the other likes female assistants.

And that night, his wife finally thought of this possibility, and found out that there was another one who was with her day and night and shared the same bed, and she committed suicide with an emotional breakdown.

It is not so much suicide about having an affair, as it is a huge contrast and a long-standing deception, and even an addiction to physical and mental hygiene.

After killing the Jazz, "Fallon" said to himself: "Self-sacrifice is the price of wonderful magic, but how can you understand these."

Sir was dying and fell into a memory.

In order to lure him into being deceived, he drowned himself once every time he performed. Who could understand such pain.

Moreover, the meaning of magic lies in deceiving, allowing the audience to escape the cruel reality while reaping spiritual joy.

In other words, they don't want to know the truth so much, they just enjoy being deceived at that moment.

Are you really looking carefully?

The whispering narration fell, and the big screen plunged into darkness.

The movie is over.

......

Is this Nolan's new work?

George watched the scrolling cast and crew list on the big screen again, and he didn't recover for a long time.

Magic-like themes, self-sacrifice and perseverance, as well as a very subtle narrative mode of dividing lines, there is no lack of foreshadowing and reversal of suspense clues.

It can only be said that after a few works, Nolan has become more mature in his control of movies and has more and more personal image styles.

You know, the most successful "Mystery of Xia Ying" is actually using the power of the "Batman" mountain. Although the box office and reputation are very good, it can not be said to be amazing.

After all, no matter how he shoots, he can't escape Batman's various influences on the film, good or bad.

But this "Fatal Magic" is different. It does not need to compromise the existing character image, and it does not need to create a rough "Batman" for comic fans. It is Nolan's more self-interpretation.

In other words, Nolan, who injected a handful of dark colors into "The Mystery of Xia Ying", began to squander his talent unscrupulously in such suspenseful sci-fi works.

In the screening hall, the audience applauded affirmatively.

George is also very grateful for seeing such a movie that satisfies him tonight. In the dimness, he glanced at the figure sitting close to Lyman in the front——

What else do you expect him to shoot next?George couldn't help thinking like this.

He is very fond of this set of "complex and strong personal style".

However, not every audience will like it.

In fact, even at the premiere, there are fans who are looking forward to the director and the creator as much as possible, but during the screening of "Fatal Magic", there were still people who left halfway, not just one or two.

Nolan himself noticed this scene.

He has watched his own film countless times, so he has a lot of energy to observe the audience's feelings about the film.

Ever since, unlike everyone's applause, although he is also happy, he is still worried about whether "Fatal Magic" will be accepted by the market and will be recognized by the audience.

Lehman also has some feelings about the film.

From the perspective of later generations, "Fatal Magic" is not regarded as the best work of Nolan's career. It can even be said to be his earlier exploration work. Strictly speaking, the whole film has many flaws.

For example, the copy machine with sci-fi colors, in such a rigorously structured suspense film, there is a smell of forced laying of bugs; for example, the theme of the film is with the help of magic, and it is about sacrifice.

It probably means that when you see someone do something that feels very simple and then succeed, you think that he has some tricks and does it effortlessly.There are quite a few performances of being noble in the front and suffering in the back.

This kind of thinking can be brought into many places.

The farmer has the farmer's way of living, and the emperor has the emperor's way of living. I only see the enjoyment part, and ignore the sacrifice and sacrifice part. On the contrary, it is ridiculous to imagine that the emperor uses a golden hoe for digging soil.

Of course, Lehman himself was very impressed by the birth of this movie.

It is different from what market Nolan is worried about, but he has seen a director make rapid progress.

For a moment, he felt that Nolan's growth made him feel pressured.

"The movie is very good."

Lehman encouraged seriously.

Even if it is just an exploration, it can be stronger than most movies, even if there are flaws, it is not unacceptable.

Of course, Nolan's next answer surprised Lehman.

"If I can take another shot, I can definitely do better."

"Of course, I believe you."
